“Client-centric boutique”
"The Hennessy Group is a boutique firm so it has a more myopic focus through the client lens. It’s very client centric, with a strong focus on customer service and fulfillment. Also, our experience with them was more personal than typical big search firms."

"They nailed it"
“Our first Hennessy hire was one of our most coveted employees - a supply chain guy. They nailed it. Next was a Head of Business Development, followed by another BD search, then two regulatory people, including one in Europe. Then they found our EVP of R&D. We only use The Hennessy Group for retained searches. They have also helped us with Board member selection.”

“Only the very best candidates”
"From the hiring side, I’ve never worked with a firm that could sell my company so well to prospective candidates. Only a select few of the very best candidates make it through the Hennessy search process. As a former candidate, I know firsthand that they are thorough, personal, deliberate, and rigorous well beyond any other search firm I’ve known."

“More thorough screening”
"The Hennessy Group recruited me out of Big Pharma into another Big Pharma. I was very impressed with them compared with various recruiters I’ve talked with over the years. They do a better job, are more thorough in screening, and the conversations are more intelligent and relevant."
